Backgrounds

I recently finished painting my backgrounds. I’m now at the compositing stage, and I’m really enjoying seeing my film look like a film rather than a line test.

Here are a few of the finished pieces!

Colour Tests

Colour tests exploring how the light and colour will change throughout my film.

Classical Film: Roughs and Clean

One character from one scene of my classical film. I’m currently cleaning up, which involves rough cleaning the very rough roughs, and then cleaning the rough cleans!

There are a few inbetweens missing from the clean.

I had great intentions of working over my Christmas break, but that didn’t really happen – at least not while I was at home. As I’ve still a few days before school starts again I thought I’d catch up with some of the things I meant to do.

This is a tone study, taking my character and background designs and trying to figure out approximately what it’ll look like once it’s all coloured and composited together.
